Get to Know Carnival Panorama

There just isn’t enough vacation time to do everything, so we go for the widest variety, make the most of the moments... and above all, try to have the most fun whenever possible. All of you with the heads nodding, hands raised, folks who just stood up and cheered at the office — you’re Carnival Panorama’s people!

This ship packs all the best, most delicious fun from her sister ships Carnival Vista® and Carnival Horizon®, but still manages to stand out. One example: it’s easy to stand out when you’re literally flying, and Carnival Panorama has the only Sky Zone trampoline park you’ll find at sea. This spot gives a whole new meaning to leaving the land behind, so lose the shoes and gain some air with gravity-defying dodgeball sessions or slam-dunk basketball experiences. That’s not the only way to catch some air, either, because this ship also features SkyRide®, a pedal-powered suspended bike experience that’ll have you enjoying wide, breezy views of the ocean. Plus there’s a ropes course, mini-golf and WaterWorks waterpark, of course!

It’s not all action, though, because relaxation options like Cloud 9 Spa and Serenity Adult-Only Retreat are on the menu. Great dining is too, with choices that range from the refined fare of Bonsai Teppanyaki and Fahrenheit 555 Steakhouse to come-as-hungry-as-you-are classics like BlueIguana Cantina, Guy’s Pig & Anchor Smokehouse | Brewhouse and Seafood Shack. (And at Guy’s, the brews are as fresh as the food, all of which are made on board.) Havana Bar & Pool are there to give you a bit of that “90 miles south” flavor and flair, with matching stateroom options that keep you close to the action all cruise long.

There’s traditional Carnival fun too, and these fan-favorites are great news for everybody! Three age-perfect youth programs keep kids busy having a blast with their peers, while Playlist Productions take songs you know and make high-energy crowd-pleasing shows out of them. Dive-In Movies makes a big production out of the big screen over the pool, plus The Punchliner Comedy Club features family-friendly shows… and, uh, late-night shows for after the kids go to bed.
